-From: Dmitri Epshtein <dima@marvell.com>
-
-In order for the driver to behave properly in a SMP context, the same
-transmit queue should be used by the kernel in dev_queue_xmit() and in
-the driver's mvneta_tx() function. To achieve that, the driver now
-implements the ->ndo_select_txq() operation.
-
-For now, it always returns the same transmit queue, txq_def, until the
-driver is expanded to properly take advantage of the multiqueue
-capabilities of the hardware.
-
-Without this patch, the network driver crashes the kernel almost
-immediately on Armada XP platforms, if the network load is at least a
-little bit parallel (i.e several threads).
